These lubricants were approved for heavy vehicles from Volvo and Renault, and have a fully synthetic composition UHPD (Ultra High-Performance Diesel) with the "Low SAPS" technology that makes them the perfect choice for next-generation heavy diesel engines.

The main advantages of these lubricants are:

- Extended maintenance intervals: The synthetic bases of its formulation together with a package of carefully selected additives reduce maintenance costs and downtime;

- High lubricant longevity: Exceptional thermal stability and oxidation resistance, even at high temperatures or adverse conditions, which prevents the formation of deposits and sludge;

- Protection of exhaust after-treatment systems: its low content of sulfated ash, phosphorus, and sulfur allows it to maintain the particulate filter, SCR, EGR, and/or catalytic converters extremely clean;

- Exceptional cold start performance: excellent fluidity at low temperatures for a faster cold start-up;

- Fuel economy: it allows a reduction in fuel consumption and a consequent reduction in costs per km when compared to higher viscosity products.
